Probably because all of our green laws make it more expensive and non competitive with USSR and China product. The solution here is to place an import tariff on refined cobalt so that US produced refined product is at the same price as imported product. And then make it through laws that all cobalt used in Military and space must be US sourced and refined.
So cobalt for EV's... that's being shipped via diesel powered freighter and trains and trucks to Brazil which has less stringent environmental laws to be processed then shipped to make batteries for EV's to reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuels.....how stupid is the world?
because 75% of the world’s cobalt supply is funded by literal slavery. the same cobalt that is necessary to run every single device you own that has a rechargeable battery.
Hmmm......
And we can't refine it HERE in America BECAUSE???😠

Profits and politics to keep it flowing. Public opinion means nothing.
